Unbeatable

Without sounding critical, Snapfiles needs to post more recent reviews of this powerful free email client, the last being January 2007. A lot has happened since then. It is fully customizable, fast and accurate. The features and customizations are almost endless and should be more than enough to suit everyone's needs, both private and professional. The learning curve is not steep and easy to configure your own spam filter levels. I would recommend this email to anyone.

Moved up from 4 to 5 stars of excellence
SideSlide version 1.5.02b
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 4
- Value: 5
- Overall:
Within the last couple of weeks Sideslide has improved by fixing a few irritating bugs. Some may say that these were inconsequential but they were somewhat annoying. Now that all of these have been attended to, I have no choice but to amend my previous rating of 4. It now has a rating of 5. I cannot imagine a program/application/folder/file/url launcher improving on this one. If it was a browser, it would be Firefox as it is so customizable. Great work.

Would be good if more stable
Mayk version 2.0.1
- Interface: 3
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 3
- Value: 5
- Overall:
I would give this a 5 star rating and use it if it were more stable. Once set up, it is good. In fact, it was good enough to prompt me to uninstall Object Dock and Folder Guide. HOWEVER, it appears to have a mind of its own in that it will erase the contents (URL addresses, and shortcuts to programs and files) from the tabs/buttons. If this problem could be rectified I would certainly reinstall this small piece of software which uses virtually no resources. I have tried it over a 5 day period and the problem is recurring and I don't believe that it's my system. I had to uninstall simply due to its unreliability. Until then, I am back with Object Dock and Folder Guide

I defy anyone to show me a better stand alone
EssentialPIM version 1.8
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5

I defy anyone to show me a better free stand alone personal information/appointment manager. I have been using it for about a year and the updates improve the program (relatively regularly), especially evident in this 1.8 version. Google Calendar is not far away but it has some things to learn, possibly from Essential PIM. One feature I really enjoy is "contacts"; when I need one of my contact's address, phone number, birthday, e-mail address etc, I go here with a click - much faster than looking up my address book or diary. Reminders are excellent with the ability to personalise the wav sound which can be fun if you have the time. All in all top class software.

I have tried only one better than this
UK Kalender version 2.0.0
- Interface: 4
- Features: 2
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
Impressive to say the least considering that it's free. However, I can't help comparing it with another free program - Essential PIM and Essential wins hands down. If UK Kalender had some extra features such as the ability to add an address book where you could add all your contacts details (name, address, birthdays, telephone numbers etc), I would certainly convert but in the meantime I will be staying loyal to Essential PIM.
